    toot.

    So, I fix beans alot. When I fix a pot (that I haven't already sprouted) I soak them all night the night before I cook them. This is a well known method for decreasing the gas produced by the enzymes in beans.

    My BF always blames his gas on my beans. Except it's usually 2-3 days after he eats them. I'll get a text message while he's at work letting me know that "my" beans are kicking in.

    The average person will experience gas (if they are going to) within 30 min to an hr after eating the gas producing food. So basically, I think he's full of it and is using my beans as his gassy excuse.

    And, he has regular bowel movements every day. SO, what he's telling me, is that 48 hours, and 2 poo's after eating "my" beans, he's just now experiencing gas from them.

    So....whats your verdict.....is my BF a gassy individual looking for something to blame? You already know my opinion.

    lol - you are funny!

    Beans don't effect me that way, I eat so many, I wonder if I just have a resistance to it.

    Hubby, another story, but it also runs in the family.

    I would say I doubt it, but, you never know...

    Also, just a tip I learned from my grandma... When soaking your beans, add about 1/8 tsp of baking soda, it will help prevent flatulence too.

    That is sooo funny BD. I agree with you. I think it's (no pun intended )

    If he's going to the restroom with regular bowel movements, then there is no way they are kicking in days after he eats them. They don't really bother me much anymore because I eat some type almost daily, but when I didn't it was within a few hours at most.

    Tell him you're not serving him anymore food if he's blaming it on you
